Current state of #debugging: #GithubAction experiences a timeout that I do not -- checking for timeouts on something takes a whopping 30+ seconds, when I have no problem getting it done under the 5-second testing timeout limit. Next stop: figure out WHY. Suspect: I'm doing something that the server's PostGres version is bad at?

With enough users, SOMEONE will depend on observed functionality of your API, regardless of whether it is "supported" or "deprecated" or simply unknown to the author(s). See also https://xkcd.com/1172/ and some deeper explation at https://www.explainxkcd.com/wiki/index.php/1172:_Workflow .

@freemo @tech.lgbt oi. Doesn't seem like anything there should have led to a server block, or to it continuing

@freemo @tech.lgbt I'm definitely curious. What's the link?

@freemo @tech.lgbt so bizarre that the tech.lgbt person would have bad behavior against their namesake group...

@freemo why is there a disconnect so that I am having trouble following or being followed by a friend on the @tech.lgbt instance? I hear that #qoto might be on people's "bad" list?

#emacs #Bookmarks are a super power I never hear mentioned, and BookmarksPlus is a full-blown application that highlights and brings all that power to your finger tips. Annotations, URLs, directories, files (like my PDF library), and full integration with dired. https://www.emacswiki.org/emacs/BookmarkPlus

The original code author was new to the language (this was his first and maybe only project in #Clojure) and loved to explicitly return nil and check `(nil?)` all the time. It turns out, it's harder to remove explicit type and `nil?` checks than I thought.

@izaya Big agree. My America is de defacto creator of the internet and thinks that makes them the owner, ignoring the beautiful world of what the internet has become and what it represents. Default "let's focus on America" is no longer accurate, and definitely not appropriate

Apparently I need to practice the "refactor so it's idiomatic, without changing the behavior". #clojure #testing

https://orys.us/v0 what has been taking a lot if my time as I try to make our automated deployment happy on some project. #xkcd #deploying #testing

https://lib.reviews/ is ad-free and open source, though not decentralized. Looks very clean!

Does anyone know of a decentralized solution, like BookWyrm for movies?

@pymander @howard@emacs.ch I use CLJC on several projects (and rely on its use in some libraries) so that CLJ and CLJS use literally the same code

@mindaslab I also find value in the #telegram one, for those who are using that: https://t.me/clojure_en
